AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

With friendly service, superb food and decent beers this is a pub well worth trying…read more If you are there on a sunny day you can appreciate the fine view from the new looking beer garden. The pub has a more formal dining are and a bar with tables, you can reserve a table in either section. Dogs are welcome in the bar area and children are well catered for, plenty of high chairs (although I would recommend reserving one)and colouring books and crayons for the more artistic toddlers. The atmosphere is good, no doubt helped by a decent playlist on the sound system and a number of Pete Mckee canvases on the walls. The beers are from the Thornbridge brewery and are excellent. The food is also very good, priced in the gastropub range, but is worth the price. I'd recommend booking as it can get (unsurprisingly) pretty busy especially on a weekend lunch time. The company that runs the pub have a number of other eateries and I have heard good things about them all.

Popped in on the way back from a cold day out at Alton Towers…read more We got a lovely warm welcome, were quickly seated near a roaring fireplace and settled in for a great meal accompanied by some very well kept Hartington IPA. The pub is cosy and friendly, and in a great location for walkers and cyclists on the Tissington trail. We'll definately be heading back soon (to the Royal Oak not Alton Towers, which is another story)!

The Cross Daggers is the local pub for a number of my northern relatives, I visited a fair few…read moretimes while on my latest trip to the north. The pub is situated at the top of a hill; normally enough to make one kick they're heels and moan about the walk and can't we go to the Oak, it's closer. On arrival all fears were put to rest, what an outstanding place this is. Recently refurbished from a formally grotty, two-room social club feel, the Cross Daggers has been transformed. Now you'll feel nothing but warmth as you walk in, not just from the decor, the pictures, the furniture but the people too. Outstandingly friendly staff serving wonderfully looked after real ale. There was Black Sheep on tap, and frankly kids it won't get any better than that. The Cross Daggers wins on so many levels and it's greatest achievments is not relying on SKY SPORTS screens all over, pool tables, fruit machines and all that other claptrap. Just good people, great atmosphere and excellent beer. Obviously the Cross Daggers is a locals pub, a little out of the way, but should you find yourself in the area I insist you pop in. This is what British pubs have always been and always should be. Britain at it's very best if you will.

3 of you have said the beer is good then you mention "Black Sheep" bitter - which is ok I suppose…read morebut a bit mainstream and ordinary. Do they have proper real ales like the ones made by the smaller breweries such as the wonderful local Thornbridge beers, or any beers by Kelham Island or Bradfield Brewery? You can get Black Sheep bitter all over the UK thesedays - it's a beginner's real ale. A mile better than the rubbishy keg stuff but sorry, absoultely not in the same league as some of the beers I mention from the local breweries. A good local pub ought to have local beers - it may be that the Cross Daggers is a tied house - sounds a bit like it. But, appreciate the recommendation and I'll be pleased to pop in and check it out. Will probably just have a soft drink though so I can enjoy a proper beer at the coach and horses just down the road afterwards.
